WWF Betrayal is a beat 'em up on the Game Boy Color based on the World Wrestling Federation (WWF). It was the third and last WWF game released to the Game Boy Color and one of a few games based on the promotion that was of a different genre than the regular professional wrestling games usually produced.
The game's plot was roughly based on a storyline in 1999 where Stephanie McMahon gets kidnapped. Her father Vince McMahon promises to grant the player a shot at the WWF Championship if they manage to save her. The player must then fight through a series of side-scrolling levels to rescue Stephanie. The player can play as Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, Triple H, or The Undertaker.

The entire story of Wrestlemania Revenge is just you killing wrestlers and blowing shit up to apparently sabotage Mania, on behalf of Steph who wants to run her own Mania somehow?
Then for some reason Mania happens anyway and you beat Vince up.

In SvR 2006 I think it is, Trish takes the title in a ladder match and despite not being a competitor in the match, is then the champion for some reason That was Smackdown vs. Raw 2007. That was a weird storyline. I remember your wrestler faced Chris Masters. Trish climbed up the ladder to grab the belt and handed it to Masters. It led to some controversy (within the storyline). It then had a match with your wrestler vs. Chris Masters with Trish in his corner, but then a cutscene started with Trish getting the pin on one of the wrestlers and was awarded the title. Man, I have to play that game again for the ridiculousness in the storylines. Some of those storylines you wouldn't see on TV, either. SVR 2006's Raw Season Mode path was too linear no matter what choices you made. Even trying to be a heel still leads to beatdowns from Triple H and Ric Flair, and Bischoff stripping titles from you. The Smackdown path felt way more fun on the other hand. Fair, but getting swerved out of the tag titles due to Bischoff invoking "the Virgil Runnels amendment of 1987" is good shit And I'm still not sure if the alternate ending to the Teddy Long story being that you ran him over despite you (the player) having no indication that this was the case until the reveal is incredible or bullshit Someone must have thought that Vince Russo was a genius when that storyline was written. The one about your wrestler being the one who ran down Teddy Long.

One of the SVRs. RVD starts an ECW invasion but if you choose to join ECW he turns on ECW and becomes a WWE heel. And you’re the face….somehow

The Smackdown path felt way more fun on the other hand. You'd think they'd learned their lesson for Just Bring It. It was yet another case where they were told ambitious with the voice acting, but soon realized they didn't have enough material to stretch out for various stories. I'll gladly take more gameplay instead of novelty elements that don't effect the enjoyment very much.

The Better than U-topia storyline from SVR 2009(I think), Which involves MVP creating his own country with Finaly and I think Festus? It just seemed to me like really convoluted way to do a stereotypical USA storyline. Also you unlock Tony the Soldier, clearly the breakout star of the game.

WWF Betrayal is basically Bad Dudes: WWF Edition. Now, the strangeness is having a side-scrolling beat-em-up starring WWF wrestlers, but the plot worked well for what it was.
Ninjas have kidnapped Stephanie McMahon. Are you a bad enough dude to save Stephanie?

& Vince was the one behind the kidnapping all along (gee, that sounds familiar) & the game's bosses are the other playable characters you didn't pick. So if you went with HHH, the final boss is Austin who has become Vince's new chosen champion and henchman.

This was the only version of SvR I owned and completely forgot about this! Yes! (Although it's also the version I got Jillian Hall to win every title so it's not all bad.)
